Rock didn't actially name Sean Penn in his interview with Penthouse magazine when he said: "These kids [U.S. soldiers] are very young and a lot of them think people who oppose the war are against them. You have to be very careful with what you talk about - especially when you are some Hollywood fu***er.
Just because you made a great movie doesn't make you are an expert on foreign policy."
Rock is a regular on the USO circuit of celebrities visiting the troops.
Rock talks of his meeting the then Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, whom he defends. "I was at the White House drinking a Beam and Coke, shooting the sh*t with Rumsfeld, when [President] Bush came by and gave me five like we were on Seven Mile and Van Dyke in Detroit," he tells Penthouse.
Page Six notes Rock is a big supporter of firearms: "If it weren't for guns and people who know how to use them in America, we'd all be sitting around with swastikas saying, 'Heil Hitler!' "
